Yea, theres shove in there. Many of the popular features from mods like bani and shrub, were included by me, and the bots use them all!

Originally, I was just going to make a single class bot, a medic only bot, that could be used by server admins to make sure their servers always had someone on them. I also always play medic, which is probably why the medic class is really strong, even for a bot.

I decided to go the full classes route instead tho, so now all of the classes will be represented (tho meds and lts will be worked on first).

Wow! Those bots were very fun and very good! I was surprised to see that the medics knew how to tk-revive -- surprising!


Any chance you'd release a waypoint package with waypoints for all the CP maps?

Yes!

But not for a few more weeks.

I'm re-working Fritz's AI and navigation - I've already changed how the nav system works quite a bit, the waypoints released for the test no longer work in the current version I have now.

Let me work on Fritz some more, and I'll release another test, this time with more map support! I'm hoping in about another month or so - tho don't hold me to that!

Glad you like it!

Cheers!


ps: any maps in particular you want?

gonna try this thing tonight.. sounds very interesting.. when are you gonna make it open source and open for development?

tried them now, and i gotta say.. really nice work! love them lt:s that always give you ammo when you ask for it

would be cool to them move and do other things at the same time, like handing out ammo or shooting. now they are easy to hit when they stand still and shoot.

Yea, thats one thing thats really needed - combat movement. Its on the TODO list.

Glad you enjoyed them - teamwork was one of the things I really wanted the bot to do: I hate playing a pub server full of n00bs who won't give ammo, especially after you just revived them! >

Ghost: Trench will be supported next release - you can bet on it!

I really like it! great work

I would like to see a bot menu, like in wolfbot where you can choose what type with what weapon and what team you want the bot to be/go.

Also more maps, Assault,Beach,Base,Ice,te_ufo would be nice

Once again great work and thanks!

Hmm, my idea with Fritz has been to create bot personalities - if you look thru the .pk3 file, you'll see ".bot" files that store each bot's personality info. Since people usually play with a certain "style", so do the bots. For example, I like to play a med on the allied team on destruction. Well, with Fritz, I could create a bot with my name, that prefers to play med on the allied team. You can easily create your own ".bot" files and customise how the bot plays yourself.

I may add a menu of some kind tho to ease the process, but thats not for a while yet, getting the AI revamped/improved is priority #1 right now.
